Notes: This is a "kitchen sink" brew. I used up what I had laying around since this will be my last brew at this batch size and also batch type since I am shifting to all grain. I finally got myself a Grainfather brewing system and a Kegerator for after the brew so the LBK is being retired.
I used Citric Acid during the boil to lower the Ph and Irish Moss in the last 10 minutes to clarify the brew. I aerated the wort for 15 minutes using an airstone and aquarium pump to help increase the oxygen available for the yeast. Did this prior to pitching the yeast. Had great flocculation of the yeast and hops due to the Irish Moss.
Due to the high OG, I let this ferment for 6 weeks, cold crashed for one day and then bottled into 740 ML bottles with two carbonation drops in each. Bottle conditioned for 6 weeks, then chilled for 2 days. Invited a friend over and we enjoyed it a lot.
Medium amber color and very good clarity. VERY hoppy and great mouthfeel.
Next Batch up will be a Russian Imperial Stout.
Fermented at 70 degrees in my back room.
One final note is that I use an induction hot plate for doing my boil. This allows me to very closely control the boil temperature. If you don't have one, I recommend you get one. Well worth it. I had not boil overs even with the sugars. |

Notes: Hopstand additions performed shortly after flame out. Because of the low boil size, the temperature is expected to drop quickly and utilization is expected to be on the low end, because the late addition extract will be in by then.
As DME has an astonishingly low amount of fermentables, sugar was added long after fermentation stalled to raise the ABV. |
